Topic: DaemonControl - A launchctl GUI (Read 19397 times)

What is this?To explain this simple: It is a basic GUI for the launchctl service of your iDevice. Using this service you can enable/disable LaunchDaemons on runtime, neither with deleting the actual Daemon nor with the need of a reboot. Just select the Daemons you want to enable/disable and let the program run.

Why did make this?I made this because many people do not know that launchctl exists or screw their device by deleting the wrong Daemons. The worst part about deleting the wrong Daemons is, of course, that you cannot re-enable Daemons that are deleted, unless you made a Backup. Unfortunately, many people forget this, so I decided to make their lives easier.What is DaemonControl able to do?-Disable running Daemons-Enable disabled Daemons-Creating Backups in case you disable "wrong" Daemons, unknowing which one to enable-Restore from the Backups

What is planned for the future?-A Database containing information about every Daemon-Marking Daemons as safe, optional, system relevantHere some screenshots:

Where am I able to download it?Add my Repo in Cydia: cydia.realblack7.bplaced.netA link for offline installation is soon to come

Thanks for the lists, but there is one problem. matt deleted some daemons on whited00r, so i need a list of a none whited00r firmware.But thanks anyway, i think these are the optional and needed daemons then^^

what exact version of iOS 4? 4.0.1, 4.1, 4.2.1? and in what device did install it?

did you install it via cydia with all dependencies?

What preferences executable are you using? You probably thought of this already, but you could get the preferences executable from the Preferences.app in the postinst script have it copy over I did that with my programs (well, I had it copy to Ch40s-Utilities folder but still ). That way it is compatible on all firmwares, and at least opens
